Niltze [Hello]- I am still using reiser4 -enabled kernel 5.17.15-3 under Debian Trixie (which default kernel is 6.x.y). Everything was 'well and dandy' until yesterday that the following packages were upgraded: mesa-vulkan-drivers_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb mesa-common-dev_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb mesa-libgallium_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb libegl-mesa0_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb libgbm1_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb libgbm-dev_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb libgl1-mesa-dri_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb libglx-mesa0_26.1.2-1~bpo13+1_amd64.deb Upon a subsequent reboot and into E, I got the following message: "Compositor Warning Your display driver does not support OpenGL, GLSL shaders or no OpenGL engines were compiled or installed for Evas or Ecore-Evas. Falling back to software engine. You will need an OpenGL 2.0 (or OpenGL ES 2.0) capable GPU to use OpenGL with compositing." I rebuilt EFL, E, and Terminology, and reinstalled packages. I observed no change. Then... Erroneously [!?] thinking that those Debian upgraded packages might have had an 'affinity' to Trixie default kernel 6.x.y, I proceeded to rebuild backported equivalents under my current kernel 5.17.15-3 reiser4 environment. I observed no change and got the same warning at the top. Subsequently, I built *again* EFL and E, but this time with *all* my rebuilt mesa software components already replacing the Debian repository defaults installed, i.e., < https://tenochtitlan.city/system/media_attachments/files/116/905/346/966/328/222/original/03660c3247528be7.png > (Tried twice but could not upload screenshot to Enlightenment.org with 'Take Screenshot' menu) No change still. Any insights would be appreciated. -- Best Professional Regards. -- Jose R R http://metztli.it --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Download Metztli Reiser4: Debian Trixie w/ Linux 5.17.15-3 AMD64 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- feats ZSTD compression https://sf.net/projects/metztli-reiser4/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Official current Reiser4 resources: https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/
